I’m not talking about an official manual patch. Instead, I just wrote how to update the Emil Chronicle Online client manually -yes, literally manually. This guide is only appropriate to you if:
- You have a very slow/unstable connection so that you cannot finish a big update.
- You have tried updating many times without success.
- You are patient enough to read and follow this guide (which I bet most of you are not).
- You don’t have any other choice left.
If you’re wondering why should you choose this way to update, one thing that is almost guaranteed is that you don’t need to repeat the update from the beginning every time you fail, since you’ll download the files manually. You can use any download manager to pause and continue every time you want.
Update (22 Aug 2013): Step 3 up to 9 can be replaced by using the application I posted here.
The big idea is to redirect the patch server into your own computer (localhost) so the launcher would request update from your own computer. To do this you need a web server. OK, for those who do not understand, you can forget this paragraph and continue.
- Download nginx (around 1.15MB).
- Extract the archive and run the nginx.exe. It will not show anything. Oh and if you run Skype (which may use port 80), close Skype first before running nginx. After you run it, try http://localhost. If it opens a nginx welcome page, you’re good to go. If it’s not (timeout or whatever), then nginx is not running yet.
Update (22 Aug 2013): Step 3 up to 9 can be replaced by using the application I posted here - Open folder
htmlwithin that nginx folder. Create a new folder named “eco”.
- Now download this file http://patch.gungho.jp/eco/econew.ver and place it inside that eco folder.
- Now, see what version is your client currently. Don’t tell me you don’t know where to see it. It’s in the launcher’s title. It should be like “ECO Client verXXX”. I will use mine as an example. Mine is currently version 347, so I need to upgrade to 348. Therefore, you have to create a folder named “D00000348” in that eco folder.
Note for the new installation: The version will be “FullPackage”, and no folderD00000xxx. Instead, create a folder named “fullpackage” and continue inside that folder.
Normal Update to version 348 
New Installation - Open the D00000xxx folder you just created. This folder will contain all the update files. Of course, you have to download it manually. What files are you going to download? Firstly, this: http://patch.gungho.jp/eco/D00000348/dl_list.txt. For the noobs who confuses themselves because you see a webpage instead, save it. Don’t know how to save a web page? Hit Ctrl+S. If you’re done, place that file into the D00000xxx folder.
Note for fullpackage: dl_list.txt file is located here instead: http://patch.gungho.jp/eco/fullpackage/dl_list.txt
- Open that dl_list.txt file. This file will show you what files to download for the update. For this example, the dl_list.txt should look like this:
eco.ver,5
ver00000348_1.cab,10240000
ver00000348_10.cab,10240000
ver00000348_11.cab,10240000
ver00000348_12.cab,10240000
ver00000348_13.cab,10240000
ver00000348_14.cab,10240000
ver00000348_15.cab,10240000
ver00000348_16.cab,10240000
ver00000348_17.cab,10240000
ver00000348_18.cab,10240000
ver00000348_19.cab,10240000 - For the first line, it says eco.ver,5. It means you have to download http://patch.gungho.jp/eco/D00000348/eco.ver, which has 5 bytes of size. Then you have to download http://patch.gungho.jp/eco/D00000348/ver00000348_1.cab, which has 10240000 bytes (10000 KB) of size. And so on, continue until the end of dl_list.txt.
Note for fullpackage: The URLs you need to download are http://patch.gungho.jp/eco/fullpackage/eco.ver, http://patch.gungho.jp/eco/fullpackage/ver00000345_1.cab, etc. - Place all of the downloaded file requested by dl_list.txt in the same folder as dl_list.txt. Congratulations! You have completed the downloading task.
- Now it’s time to manipulate the client to think that your computer is the patch server. Go into your eco client installation folder (where eco_launch.exe resides). Open the upsv.lst file using notepad. For the noobs, open notepad, drag the file into the notepad. Change “patch.gungho.jp” into “localhost” or “127.0.0.1“. Don’t forget to save it.
- Run your client (eco_launch.exe) and run the patcher as usual. It should update very quickly now.
- When you’re done with the patching (updating), remember to restore the upsv.lst file (step 10) contents into “patch.gungho.jp” back, unless you will always need to do this tutorial again.
- For the new installation: The launcher might not respond for a few minutes while it’s still extracting files. It’s not a problem. Wait until the
_tempfolder in your client folder disappears. It indicates the installation has finished, and you may close the launcher.
Run nginx and repeat step 4 to 12 if you want to update manually again. Oh, and of course, adjust the version number to your need. To remind you again, the example above is to update to version 348, so the client is currently running version 347.
If you want to shutdown nginx, use task manager and kill nginx.exe process.
Sorry for my bad English. If you experience problems, you may leave comment. I may or may not reply though.
I’ve already downloaded all that files manually, yet when i tried to patch it, it doesn’t work. i can’t even click the update button. I’ve already changed the upsv to localhost, but it seems that it doesn’t work? where did i go wrong?
Can’t say for sure. There are some possibilities:
thanks, it now worked properly. but i’m quite confused here. what should i do next once i completed the update? because whenever i exit the launcher, the eco folder went empty again. i’ll give you some screenies:
http://i47.tinypic.com/2dm8hmq.png
http://i46.tinypic.com/29vncd3.png [the _temp folder went empty whenever i exit the launcher]
I see you’re fresh installing. If I’m not mistaken, it should be at version 345 once it finished installing.
After you finish the update, change the upsv.lst file back to patch.gungho.jp and try re-launching the eco_launch again.
The first picture: It says it’s still extracting the files. Leave it (don’t exit) and wait until the text above the bar (ファイル展開中) changes. After it changes, you can exit the launcher, edit the upsv.lst file, then re-launch again to see if it’s successful.
The second picture: The _temp folder is always emptied and deleted after an update or when the launcher is closed. It’s not wrong.
“whenever I exit the launcher” : Are you exiting the launcher while it’s still extracting the files?
“the eco folder went empty again”: eco folder or _temp folder?
ah i get it now, so i have to wait until the files have been extracted. but it seems I’ve encountered another problem. why did the launcher always stops responding whenever I’ve completed updating from 345 to 346 whether it is manually or auto update?
http://i49.tinypic.com/2rhmyxw.png
Sorry, I’ve never encountered that problem. Have you tried running the launcher as administrator, or restarting the PC first? Always use auto update if possible.
Same the problem here, but i try tu run nginx.exe again. and finally it’s work … Thanks xD
could you tell me how i can run the launcher as administrator?
sorry im noob with PC..im using win 7..thanks
Right click at eco_launch.exe, and choose Run as Administrator.
Thanks Alexander..i have more prob..
i was downloaded eco fullpatch until ver 00000345_287.cab
i see in download list that size version is 10mb, but when i download that version, that size is not 10mb, but only 2mb..so which the true?
so i have bad english 😀
Are you sure? Check the list again.
ver00000345_287.cab,2090739
It’s 2MB indeed, as stated in the dl_list.
ah sorry my bad alexander..thanks 😀
excuse me
alexander after update 348 has been success and then what should i do ?
Continue to step 12: restore your upsv.lst file. Then re-launch the launcher to update automatically.
i’ve tried again and again but still doesn’t work >_<
Is there any error messages? Show me some screenshots indicating your error.
kk ko patch 345 nya error mulu ya ?
tapi patch yang 348 lancar
345 kan instalasi? Errornya gimana? ada Screenshot nda?
jadi gini kak
kan yg 348 aku patch terus aku tunggu nah keluar data
kalo yg 345 aku tungguin ga keluar apapun malah not responding ==”
nih kak ss nya http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/171/captureyvh.png/
Ditungguin ga keluar apapun? Emang uda nunggu berapa lama? Prosesnya agak lama lho dan bisa bikin not responding, nda boleh di-exit sampe respond lagi. Mungkin sekitar 10 menit ato lebih bakal not responding. Biarin dulu sampe selesai baru bole lanjut.
aku udah nunggu beberapa jam tetep ga berhasil kak T_T
Yg waktu update ke 345 itu not responding terus? Coba run launcher (eco_launch) nya as administrator, terus coba update lagi dari awal.
tetep kk ga bisa T_T
kk bisa bikin video guide patch nya ga ?
kalo masalah os mungkin ga kak ?
soal nya aku pake win 8
Bisa aja, IE 10 nda support ECO katanya.
maksud nya instalasi gimana sih kak ?
di extract gitu yg part 345 nya kak ?
gan saya error nihh,, gmna nihh tolongin..hehe
ini kak liat video error nya, mohon bantuan nya yah kak
http://youtu.be/ihfRQkInfD8
Itu setelah update nya penuh, km exit ato mati sendiri launcher-nya? Ada kemungkinan not responding selama bbrp menit, biarin dulu aja sampe selesai. Kalo udah selesai folder _temp nya pasti ilang en siap pakai.
Hello
Can you teach me how you unblock yours.. they ban ip outside japan.. help
Hi again please forget what i said above i found an english tutorial site 🙂 i think i’ll download it directly from the client
pas update 350 ke 351 kok jadi not responding terus yaa ? dah ditunggu 3 jam ga jalan2, mohon solusiny ^^
http://oi49.tinypic.com/eb98ag.jpg
Update nya sekitar 6.5 MB kan? Pake auto update aja coba?
65 MB, gagal terus kalau auto update
Oh ya 65MB. Update sebelumnya ndak ada masalah? Udah coba run launchernya as admin?
update sebelumnya ga ada masalah, udah run as admin kok
ini pas update versi 353 ke 354 kok gagal mlu ? ad manual updatex g ?
Ya coba aja pake cara manual, siapa tau bisa.
bsa tlg trangin pke B. INdo g cra manual update utk ver. 354 ??
Langkah-langkahnya sama aja kyk yg di post. Yg di post kan utk ver. 348, jadi cuma ini aja yg diganti (step 5-8):
untuk manual updatenya, bisa pakai ECO_local_patch dari ECOid gak?
selama masih main ECOid dulu, launcher eco id ku bermasalah, jadi aku disarankan pakai local updater sama wavegame, apakah untuk ECOJP juga bisa?
Ndak bisa, itu dibuat khusus untuk server ECO indo.
saya instalasi baru…patch via localhost 345 lancar
tapi setelah 345 kelar..launcher nya ga jalan2 lg
_temp nya juga udah hilang
selanjutnya nunggu atau gmn ? jika patokannya berdasarkan _temp hilang = berhasil..tapi saat diganti jadi patch.gungho.jp jalanin launcerh malah patch dr 345 lg…
any idea ?
“setelah 345 kelar..launcher nya ga jalan2 lg” <-- ini launchernya not responding kah? atau ngilang dan ndak run lagi?
ndak run lg…klik launcher nya lg..balik patch ulang lg..begitu kelar…balik lg ga running kembali..ditungguin ga terjadi ap2
Jadi utk fullpackage yg 2GB lebih itu udah selesai ya? eco.ver tulisannya apa? Coba patch ulang dari awal kosongan (fullpackage), mungkin ada yg corrupt ato semacamnya.
fullpackage 2,72gb
eco.ver tulisannya ap ? –> mksdnya ? tulisannya ya sama eco.ver size 5 byte
gmn cara dr awal lg ? dah ketimpa ma patch-an asli td testing patch 345 nya..ternyata lama abis..kalo ente bisa teamviewer..boleh diremote dicek ada yg kurang ap ga :p
Maksudnya isi file eco.ver nya apa. Kalo mau coba pake teamviewer silakan aja sih. Message gw di FB sini.
karna uda patch yg asli..mau dr local ga bisa lg..ada eror dr eco_launch
eco/econew.ver bla2 err code = 3
gmn cara ulangin lg klo bgini
Udh bs..tp stuck tiap kelar patch 346 ..exenya gk keupdate 347..dan selalu patch dr 346 lg..manual lwt localhost bgitu dan kalo lsng autoupdate dr gunghonya jg eror gr2 vpn nya dc
buat yg susah patch dr 345 -> 346 lewat local/autoupdate gagal terus dimana patch nyangkut di 346 mulu atau ga berhasil di patch, gw nemu 1 cara dan buat gw itu berhasil lewat cara tsb..
gw(newbie) baru nemu klo sistem patch eco nya ngebaca angka sesuai urutan pertama
dimulai dari 1, 10, 11, 12, 13, dst bukan 1, 2 , 3 langsung seperti kita baca angka biasa dimana 1 lalu 2 lalu 3..dst
buka folder eco-> d30000346(folder yg mau dipatch)..isinya kan ada 346_1.cab sampai 346_11.cab sesuai dllist.txt
nah karena 346_10.cab dan 346_11.cab seharusnya adalah file terakhir yg harus di extract..tapi di extract duluan dan bentrok dengan file sblmnya
caranya :
1. awal2 kita ubah yang aslinya 346_10.cab menjadi 346_12.cab lalu 346_11.cab menjadi 346_13.cab
2. next 346_2.cab menjadi 346_10.cab kemudian 346_3.cab menjadi 346_11.cab
3.lalu yang 346_12.cab tadi yang sudah diubah itu(step 1) diubah kembali menjadi 346_8.cab dan terakhir 346_13.cab menjadi 346_9.cab
( menurut gue cara tsb terbukti setelah gw ubah lalu patch dan berhasil ) mungkin berguna untuk manual patch selanjutnya jika patch berkali2 masih ga berhasil 🙂
Jadi tinggal di-rename gitu aja ya? Di gw nda ada masalah sih tanpa pake rename.. Asal berhasil bagus deh.
kk maksudnya ver 345 346 tuh apaan ya?? gw masih 345.. kalo udah kelar semuanya apakah harus download juga yang verr 346 gitu? sampe 348
kk itu step 10 maksudnya nge drag gimana??
di tempat gw abis install cman ada 4 file aja lho.
1. eco_launch
2. ecover
3. upsv.ist
4. launch.dat
Abis install emang cuma ada 4 file itu. Ikutin aja dari step 5, bikin folder fullpackage dst.
Step 10 apanya yg drag? Itu cuma edit file upsv.lst aja kok.
add fb gw kk.. http://www.facebook.com/yonatanevan/
Itu ada link FB gw di bagian bawah halaman..
Ini udah gw singkat, entah bisa membantu ato ndak: http://arkross.com/eco-jp-manual-install/
we thanks ark guidenya >v<
emang ecojp sekarang udah nyampe versi berapa ?
kaga tau, gw uda vakum.
Kalau download full package, apa gak perlu download ver. sebelumnya? Soalnya saya pas awal itu Ver 226.
Kalo udah download fullpackage udah lgsg versi 345 kok. Versi sebelumnya ga dipake lagi.
File2 yang sudah didownload itu bentuknya .rar,supaya jadi.cab gimana caranya?
Itu bukan .rar. Iconnya aja kyk .rar soalnya km install winrar. Aslinya udah .cab kok.
kak ak kok gak ad folder/file yg namanya “_temp” pas install econya
gimana thu kak
apakah memang gk ad atau gimana kak
Kalo cuma install ya gak ada emang. Folder _temp itu cuma muncul saat jalanin update.
kak aku kan udh DL semuanya dari ver1-287
trus waktu mau idupin patchernya gak bisa di update
trus kata kakak di comment atas mungkin nginxnya blom idup
nah kan aku iduppin dong nginxnya
tapi abis 10-15 detik nginxnya mati mulu, ini kenapa ya? 🙁
Wah aq blum pernah kejadian sampe nginx-nya mati sendiri. Mungkin coba nginx-nya di run as administrator, atau matiin antivirus dulu. Sekalian coba matiin Skype?
Udah dites juga kah waktu nginx-nya nyala, bisa buka http://localhost lewat browser?
udh ku benerin kak, ternyata harus di drive D (awalnya ku taro di HDD external) ternyata bisa dan skrg udh patch 😀
tapi kak ada yang aneh deh, itu kan part 287 baru full package kan, alias baru versi 345, tapi waktu ngepatch dll selesai mendadak econya udah versi 350
trus waktu mau manual update ke 351 selalu crash setiap kali udh mau selese updatenya 🙁
maap yah ngerepotin banget ;_;
Coba file eco.ver nya di-edit manual jadi versi 345 terus coba patch secara normal (online)? Aneh soalnya kalo tiba2 versi 350 sih.
udah kuganti nih kak skrg udh bener lagi ke versi 345 :DD
mau tanya satu lagi ya kak 😀
kan mau langsung udate dari 345 – 372
kalo mau langsung aja, foldernya bisa ga sih di tumpuk aja, jadi kalo mau langsung update ke 372 nanti ada folder D000000346 sampe D000000372 bisa ga ya? 😀
ato bisanya satu2 aja dari versi ke versi? 😀
thanks a lot ya kak! 😀
Bisa kok, download aja dulu semua file2 patch-nya seperti yg km bilang. Ntar waktu patch juga patchernya bisa otomatis lanjut ke versi-versi berikutnya sampai versi terakhir.
Sama2 😀
Agan” ane mau tanya.. sekarang masih bisa gak manual update lewat Nginx??
